In 1941, the Chatains took a trip to the Bahamas, where they were wowed by the scale of the banana leaves. Fresh back from their vacation, they commissioned a close friend, artist Albert Stockdale, who lived down the street from them in Pasadena, to render a take on the banana leaf for their wallpaper company CW Stockwell. Then, in 1942, the designer/dancer Don Loper swathed the walls of the Beverly Hills Hotel in a large-scale tropical palm print, and the design world would never been the same.
